Not quite, on either count. If you use MySQL to develop a closed-source application *that you distribute to people in binary form*, then you have to buy the commercial licnese. Similarly, if you use the GPLed version, and you *release your application in binary form*, then you have to provide source to the people who got the binary. -- In politics, obedience and support John Cowan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> are the same thing. --Hannah Arendt http://www.ccil.org/~cowan -- license-discuss archive is at http://crynwr.com/cgi-bin/ezmlm-cgi?3
